That's possible I suppose, but it would be nice to arrange not to have
to in the future.

Perhaps we should be forcing higher log levels on libvirtd when
installing, patching /usr/local/etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf to set
log_level=2 (or even 1) perhaps? (Default is 3 == warnings+error, 2 is
info, 1 is debug)

Jim, what debug level would you recommend for automated test? Unless it
is super verbose I suppose 1=debug is the way to go?

Adding -v to libvirtd command line would be an easier patch, but only
gives the effect of log_level=2 AFAICT. Perhaps that is considered
sufficient?

Ian.
